time like falling snow

By: Skylar Pappenfort

Memories, oh memories those fine grains of sand

Escape between your fingers to the beating of the band

Murmuring in harmony upon a demure heart

Oh what a lovely pas de deux in which we find our part

Rows of fleeting smiles and a million bluebird skies

Intent on brightly shining as they pass before your eyes

Endless is the time we spend lost in waking dreams

Sometimes it seems these fantasies are life’s biggest schemes
